The current relay I have in my car is not programmable (either by design or by flaw). It is part number
1HM 955 531 C (Relay #196).
Looking that part number up on Impex gives the following description:
WIPER RELAY INTERVAL,PROGRAMABL / 3B0955531
which seems to suggest to me that Impex doesn't stock 1HM 955 531 C, but that 3B0 955 531 works as a replacement for it. I've deduced from various sources, that the relay I want (i.e., the programmable relay) is one that has either 99 or 197 emblazoned on the back (not 19 as suggested in Bentley or the 196 I actually have in my car).
Would someone be able to confirm for me that the 3B0 part is either the #99 or #197 relay? Thanks.
Edit: added the info about #197
